In some cases, blatant untruths that were dissected and chewed over endlessly by angry commentators, without ever a single retraction or clarification, even though the Peterson case was really tried in the media.
The video is the University of Minnesota's James Fetzer, who gave an hour lecture on the facts surrounding the death of Senator Paul Wellstone just days before he might have been re-elected. Fetzer gave the speech on November 16, 2005.
Wellstone and seven other souls, including his wife and daughter, were killed on October 25, 2002. He served in the Senate from 1991 until his death, 11 days before the 2002 U.S. Senate election in which he was running for a third term.
Below, I've posted comments by YouTubers that reflect the interesting mix of views that can be found on YouTube ---a site that sponsors a whopping whole lot of independent citizen journalism (and a site that I actually love exactly as much as I hate TV).
But a few notes I scribbled while watching the first 20 minutes or so of this lecture might be interesting, first. (I didn't watch the whole thing.)
Fetzer notes at 3:02 that the news reports lied about the weather, and gives documentary evidence in photo form about the actual weather near the Eveleth airport that Wellstone was approaching before his plane met its end.
At 8:41, Fetzer notes that CNN's Wolf Blitzer made a big deal on the air that the NTSB "wasn't even flying into the airport" to do its investigation---as if the weather were so phenomenally bad, they just couldn't.When actually, Fetzer explains, it's standard practice to close small airports where there's been a crash, in case the airport had something to do with the accident.
He notes that Duluth TV weathercaster Dennis Anderson tried repeatedly to correct the lies about the weather by noting his corrections on the air. It seems, though, that Anderson's efforts were drowned out by the noisy chorus of national commentators---but hooray for Denny Anderson anyway. Fetzer says he heard the reports, so they did some good.
Other interesting items Fetzer raises in his talk include the fact that Wellstone's plane was piloted by an experienced airman, Richard Conry, who had 5200 hours of flight experience and did a flight check with the FAA two days before the crash. Not only did Wellstone have an expert pilot, he had two pilots--a co-pilot named Michael Gass who was a cop and had a commercial license.
Fetzer also notes that Wellstone's plane was a Beechcraft King Air A100, a very fine plane with de-icers on the wings, which had a spotless maintenance history.
He says the investigation after the crash was hobbled by the Attorney General's refusal to declare the crash a crime scene. It could only be investigated as an accident scene, which means the collection of evidence was constrained by different rules.
Here's some more food for thought. Wellstone's plane was seen flying extremely low by a number of eyewitnesses interviewed in another Wellstone video I've posted at the bottom of this post. If a plane is flying low and goes down.....does the wreckage look like this?This plane was incinerated. Did it burn up in the jet-fuel fireball?What do other plane crashes look like when the plane was flying low?(Here's a hinty hint...go to Google Image search and type in the words small plane crash ..without quotes is fine...and you will see a whole lot of plane crashes that don't look like Wellstone's plane crash. To be fair, though, if you continue to scroll through the images, which is a punishing project, you will see incinerated planes.)

American Assassination: What happened to Sen. Paul Wellstone? Part I
Fetzer suggests an electromagnetic weapon might have been used to down Wellstone's plane, and explains some of his suspicion:
Consider the alternative that this plane was taken out by the use of an EMP-type weapon. That would explain the loss of communication commensurate with loss of control. It would explain a preimpact fire. It would explain the blue smoke. It could explain why the plane was facing the wrong direction at impact. It could explain the severe angle of descent. It could explain the engines on idle. And if a cover up was being implemented to conceal the true cause of the crash, that would explain the early arrival of the FBI. It would explain the prohibition against photographs. It would explain the reversal of roles between the FBI and the NTSB. It would explain the inadequacy of this report to reflect the evidence. Another line of argument supports this explanation. Every aircraft has its own "glide ratio" of how far it will remain in flight horizontally as it loses altitude in vertical descent when it suffers a loss of power. The plane was at 3,500' above sea level when communications were last received. The altitude at impact was 1,350', for a vertical difference of 2,150'. Assuming a glide ratio of 15:1 for the A-100, this plane could have been in a glide for the last six miles, with a loss of power as early as 10:18 AM. If an electromagnetic weapon had been used, its effects could well have been evident in the wreckage. These effects--including digital clocks, for example, that might have stopped at a time other than that of impact--would have to be obliterated and the surrounding area combed for incriminating evidence. As it happened, the fuselage burned for hours while the FBI had control of the scene and before the NTSB team arrived. Quite a coincidence, especially when they arrived so promptly on the scene. The bodies, which might have displayed signs of electromagnetic exposure, were burned beyond recognition. The FBI's assistance in this case was not acknowledged in the NTSB's report.
gumbymofugga says: Our government is obviously full of murderers, but the fact he voted against the war in iraq means absolutely nothing. 23 other people did, I don't see them dying. He voted for almost all of the bullshit military acts of Clinton, who was also a psychopathic killer. This guy (Wellstone) seemed to only vote against republican war crimes... Why do you make him out to be some saint who actually votes with thought, rather than with party? MLK was a legitimate assassination, this doesn't look like it. thisisyourwakeup replied: maybe they were just getting some target practice removing a potentially annoying thorn . did you see the condition of the plane? Thats not a normal crash at all I am no expert on Wellstone but the timing of the crash and the condition of the plane and the fact that so many other peaceful politicians die . JFK, RK, Robin Cook, Dra Dabid Kelly etc etc Timing was the key for me. Just too much of a coincidence and the death of his wife meant she could not run on his behalf with similar policy jstrahan2 comments: "Occam's razor is the law of parsimony, economy or succinctness. It is a principle urging one to select among competing hypotheses that which makes the fewest assumptions and thereby offers the simplest explanation of the effect." Considering the numerous implausible assumptions of the 'assassination' theory (not least of which is the hundreds of complicit people involved with not a single 'leak') and the well established accident investigation procedure, I believe that the choice here is clear. thisisyourwakeup replies to jstrahan2: I think we are more inclined to believe Fetzer than you. Wellstone was one of the very few senators to oppose the Iraq war and he is also one of the very few senators to die in office. He was killed as was Robin Cook, Dr David Kelly, Dr David Graham, Danny Jowenko, Barry Jennings, Richmal Oakes Whitehead, RFK, JFK, MLK, and many many many more. Now I suggest you do us all a favour and go and stick your Occams Razor up your fat (expletive) ass
